MetaCP...::Types(3pm)

bestie you've landed on the User Contributed Perl Documentation page for MetaCPAN::Client::Types β€” the header on it is stamped MetaCP...::Types(3pm) (truncated, adorable, we move) and it's the type checking helper class, version 2.044000. It's short. It's iconic. Let's get into it πŸ’–


✨ NAME ✨

MetaCPAN::Client::Types β€” a little helper class for type checking. That's the whole job description, she's not doing anything else, and honestly? respect. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ VERSION πŸŽ€

version 2.044000


πŸ’… METHODS πŸ’…

okay so here's the thing, bestie: the original page lists six helpers and then says absolutely nothing else about them. no descriptions, no args, no return values, not a single word of elaboration. I am not gonna sit here and make stuff up about them, so here's the roll call exactly as it's written, with me reacting in the margins πŸ¦‹

ArrayRef

just the name. the array-ref one. that's it, that's the entry. πŸ’€

Bool

the booleans one. the page says the word and moves on. main character energy, zero explanation. ⭐

HashRef

hash refs, same deal. no notes provided, so no notes given. πŸ“

Int

integers, listed, done. lowkey the most efficient documentation I've ever read. ✨

Str

strings! short entry for a short name, we love a theme. 🌸

Time

time. time for what? the manpage will not say. ngl I respect the mystery. 🧚

fr fr, this is a real thing: the source page gives no descriptions, arguments, or return values for any of the six. so I'm keeping all six names and adding zero invented facts. the vibe I brought, the facts are hers. periodt. πŸ’œ

and that's the whole page, babe. the footer on it says perl v5.40.1 and the date 2026-07-05, and the title stamped at the bottom is MetaCP...::Types(3pm) β€” both of which now live rent-free in this sign-off instead of in a boring little line at the end. bye bestie, hydrate, and go read your types πŸ’–πŸŽ€πŸ’…
